And in the middle of the night
I may watch you go
There'll be no value in the strength

Of walls that I have grown
There'll be no comfort in the shade
Of the shadows thrown

But I'd be yours if you'd be mine

Stretch out my life

And pick the seams out
Take what you like
But close my ears and eyes

Watch me stumble over and over

I had done wrong

You built your tower
But call me home
And I will build a throne

And wash my eyes out never again

[Hook]

But love the one you hold
And I'll be your gold
To have and to hold

A lover of the light

Skin too tight

And eyes like marbles
You spin me high
So watch me as I glide

Before I tumble homeward, homeward

I know I've tried

I was not stable
Flawed by pride
I miss my sanguine eyes

So hold my hands up -- breathe in, breathe out

[Hook]


And in the middle of the night
I may watch you go

There'll be no value in the strength
Of walls that I have grown
There'll be no comfort in the shade

Of the shadows thrown
You may not trust the promises
Of the change I'll show

But I'd be yours if you'd be mine
